The best feature of this series is the atmosphere it creates, but sadly that was often ruined by the numerous typos and grammatical errors left in this edition. The cover's typesetting is also rather lackluster compared to the first volume by the same publisher.

Content-wise: I liked the plot itself, but all that repetition was driving me crazy. And! if I wanted to read about chiselled male torsos and huge warm hands eleven billion times, I would've dug up that one Gena Showalter book I gave my mother so I wouldn't have to see it on my shelf

Fortunately Donatella ended up much more likeable than I originally expected. She saved this book with the sheer force of her personality.
